Hi all,
Does anyone know the length of the standard tiller on an Anglo Marine wanderer? And the length of the top of the rudder head (aluminium track) it goes into? I think mine has been replaced at some time, and I'm now replacing that! Having recently removed the traveller, I'm hoping to make a tiller that can hinge up to give access to the rear storage box.
Any help much appreciated.

W172 has a 43” tiller and the track is 6”. I didn’t reply at first because she is of questionable parentage ;-) with an Anglo Marine plate but a Winton era hull number (which has been discussed before) but I don’t think you will be too far wrong with those numbers either. If you need any other measurements let me know.
Regards

Hello Jonathan
I personally think making any hinge on the tiller is not a good idea.Thi does not mean I am right though.
If you do this it will be necessary to ensure zero play on the tiller which will be exaggerated massively whilst underway.Weather helm will make the sail very uncomfortable.
You don’t need to remove the tiller to gain accces to the locker.
Do you have a picture of your tiller?

Hi Doug, there's absolutely no way to open the box with the tiller in place, photo attached. Tiller slides into the rudder head and goes over the box lid. Should have also mentioned, another reason for replacing the old tiller is the play in it. I can't tighten
it any further and you can see the wear where the tiller slides on. Is this the same as your setup?
I've attached a couple of pictures of what I'm trying to do, but it may well be a total failure. Having said that, I've seen it done on a Wayfarer. Just can't remember the exact set-up or I would copy it. It won't be strong enough to sail with the tiller raised,
but should have a good length of contact area with it down.

Hi
A friend of mine has put a hatch in the top of the locker for very easy access without lifting the lid.

Hi
Putting a hinge in the tiller or hatch in the top of the locker will put the boat out of class. If you are only cruising that does not matter, but it could affect the value when you want to sell it.?

Thanks both. I'm going to try the hinged tiller and see what happens. I'll keep the old tiller in case I sell, but with the amount of work done on the boat I hope to keep it for a bit!

Yes, I did that with mine - two rectangular hatches either side of the centre line of the lid so you can lift either hatch without fouling the tiller and have access to the whole locker. Best mod I made to overcome that little design fault...
Measure twice, cut once when fitting the hatches!

Hope some of you might come along to Cornwall to Wanderer West next June.?
Would be great to see some of these boats out there and get a look at what people have done.
